Great Thai takeaway, something this end of Dun Laoghaire needed badly!
read moreBrought to you by the old Apollo Gallery team, Duke Street Gallery is one of the more commercially minded galleries in town - good selection of Irish artists and helpful staff on hand should you have a question about any of the pieces.

Great new Thai restaurant which has replaced Siam Thai (which I also liked very much). The food is always good and the staff are very friendly. My only complaint is that the prices for the main dishes does not include rice.

Nice course with great views of the Wicklow hills - a bit hilly in parts so not the kind of course you want to be carrying your clubs around, rent a trolley! The clubhouse is very nice and the food is good, there's also a nice terrace overlooking the 18th if the weather is good. The other great t...

Café 105 is a great little addition to this row of shops (which was starting to die a bit of a death before the bike shop and cafe 105 moved in). The coffee is good and my sandwich was excellent - but it was fried breaded chicken so it was always going to be tasty! They have seating out front whi...

I grabbed a Brewbaker Sandwich here the other day, I hadn't had one since I was a student in Trinity but happy to report it was a bit of a Kellogg's Cornflakes moment... 'Forgotten how good they tasted!'

This is a great Italian offering some of the best pizza you'll taste in Dublin, simple as that!
read moreThey've given this place (a little bit more than) a lick of paint - it's gone from Ireland's most dated car park to next gen. seemingly overnight - a big improvement but still tight enough to get around.

Expect queues but this place has the friendliest staff which more than makes up.

Standard Starbucks, nice during less busy times but a place to avoid during busier times (11-ish, lunch, etc.) as half of Dundrum Town Centre pours in!

Probably not as wide a selection of suits and accessories as some other places but very helpful staff and there's more of a family business feel to Bond Brothers than some other suit rental shops - worth a look if you're tying the knot!

Handy for a quick caffeine hit in the morning if you get the DART or work nearby.
